Hey guys,

MP!L sounds like it's coming along great. I got a quick question first.

Has anyone been testing it in Vista? I know it's getting tested in XP, and probably 2003. There would be no difference between the 2 anyway. But WLM also works on Vista.

I'm just curious, as to if any of the testers have gotten it installed on Vista Beta 2.

If this was posted elsewhere, please let me know and close the thread.

It should run fine on Vista, I know some testers have been using it on Vista (not me) and I don't know of any problems.

If I remember correctly Patchou will design it to work on Vista, but he is awating on getting Vista himself on a new laptop, although I do not currently know if he was received it yet . I think two or three testers have reported use on Vista, but no serious issues have come up yet, hopefully in depth testing will reveal some small bugs that need fixing, but nothing seems wrong at a first glance .

works fine in vista for me (beta 2). However i'm noticing a WLM  bug in vista only. When a contact messages you, in the pop up toast, it only shows the message and not "Contact says"

Its a new WLM feature, heres an example:
___________________________________________________

habs6091 says: hi
                          you there?

jordanspringer says: ya
                                  hi
                                  whatsup

habs6091 says: nuthin much
___________________________________________________

if u want it to say their name after each message go to:

Tools -> Options -> Messages -> Show "contact says:" before every message

thats not what i mean. in the toast popup it only shows their message and not the contacts name.

hmm interesting, wonder why thats different in vista?

@habs6091 jordan means a popup toast i.e. when someone sends you a message a little popup comes up in the bottom right corner of the screen saying "*contacts name* says; *message*" i'm sure you should know what he meens now! If not, he is saying that in vista the popup only says " *message* ". Hoope this helps you!

ok, sorry, i know what your talking about now, i didnt read your message clearly enough, i feel dumb now

im on my XP right now so when im on the Vista i will reply and tell u if mine works
